Fix your eyes on Jesus and nothing in this world can stop you. You will become less sensitive to this world and more sensitive to the Holy Spirit. What the world tells you will be your secondary concern but instead what Jesus tells will become your ultimate reality.
When we lose focus on Jesus, all the worries, anxieties and doubts appear as we are giving the world the lordship of our lives. Just as in the bible, when Jesus walks on water in Mathew 5: 22-30, Peter’s initial focus is on Jesus, and he is defying the law of physics to walk on water. Soon you can see him sinking. Why? Because he lost his focus from Jesus.
He started to see the world around him… the wind, the ocean and more over he is walking on water!! That’s exactly what happens when we lose our focus from Jesus. The world becomes more sensitive and it will take a toll on our trust in Jesus. In Proverbs 3:5, He says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding”.
So let us give Jesus our undivided attention and fix our eyes on just Him and we can be overcomers of this world!
